The Harvard Medical School Guide to Yoga: 8 Weeks to Strength, Awareness, and Flexibility

I love this book!I have been practicing yoga off/on for 12 years. My practice is usually within a studio.Eight months ago, I started to study yoga from a scholarly perspective. I became overwhelmed with all the information! Yoga is ancient and can be adapted in any way and this book is a representation of that.I am currently using this to build my confidence to return to studying this large topic. Recently I have started my own home practice and the knowledge from this book has helped me.This is made for the western Yogi!

It arrived today! Just 3 pages of information about breathing techniques that are allowed and not allowed for certain conditions has made this book worth it. I do have a number of other yoga manuals, including the classic by Van Lysbeth that cost 3.00 dollars!

I found this book at the library and loved it so much I bought my own copy. Really helpful and thorough.

Through coverage of everything you need to know to benefit from understanding and practicing yoga.

This is an excellent, in depth look at yoga, from a medical perspective, that will be helpful for beginners and long time practitioners.

A beautiful and elegant display of the meditative healing arts. I wouldn't have started Yoga without this knowledge. Thank you, Marlynn Wei, for teaching us how to think while we move softly.

A great tool for practitioners of all disciplines - one that can be readily given to clients/patients. Awesome!

Pretty good book to learn about Yoga and Meditation.

I have at least six yoga books and this is the best...very thorough and with pukka medical advice as you would expect and clear diagrams. Reccome ded

I would recomend to buy this book to anyone is intrested in yoga.

really comprehensive accessible and well structured

brilliant for yoga instruction

Für Anfänger und Fortgeschrittene interessant, da alle Aspekte des Yoga detailliert bearbeitet werden. Die Zeichnungen sind sehr deutlich, sodass ich gerne auf die Farbfotos verzichten kann. Harvard weckte hohe Erwartungen und diese wurden voll erfüllt.
